AUSTIN (KXAN) — President-elect Donald Trump's incoming "border czar" will visit the Texas border Tuesday alongside Gov. Greg Abbott, the governor's office shared in a release. Trump named Tom Homan as his border czar earlier this month — a position the president-elect said will focus on policymaking at the northern and southern borders alongside maritime and aviation security, per reporting from CNBC. Homan previously served as the director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Trump's first term.
